**Ferro Carril Oeste leads Zona A with 65 points after 34 matches, three clear of Godoy Cruz, while Tristán Suárez tops Zona B on 62 points ahead of Temperley.** The 2026 Primera Nacional regular phase, running since February, features two 18-team zones playing home-and-away; zone winners contest a neutral-ground final for direct promotion to the Liga Profesional, with second-through-eighth-place sides from each zone plus the final loser entering the Torneo Reducido knockout for the second berth. Recent results have reinforced the frontrunners—Ferro secured a 1-0 win over Racing de Córdoba and Tristán Suárez edged Patronato—while goal-difference margins and remaining fixtures will shape seeding for the postseason. The campaign concludes in November, after which the final and Reducido determine the two promoted clubs.
